| Rubber underlayment takes a bite out of sound Sound Seal introduces Sound Shark acoustical underlayment for laminate and engineered wood flooring. Made from recycled rubber, its weight helps reduce airborne noise in addition to impact noise. This addition to the Impacta line of acoustical floor underlayment products from Sound Seal is an eco-friendly sound reducing underlayment containing 85% post-consumer recycled material. Because Sound Shark is made from recycled tire rubber, its mass helps reduce airborne sounds like talking, TVs, and music, a benefit not found with traditional foam or cork underlayments. In addition, Sound Shark is available in four thicknesses, allowing flexibility in the floor buildup to reduce transitions from room to room, and offering various degrees of both impact and airborne sound reduction. write your comments about the article :: © 2005 Construction News :: home page |
